Providing privacy at live events with Framery smart pods

Live conferences and networking events are a whirlwind of energy, connections, and ideas. But finding a quiet space to make a call or meet in private amidst the buzz can be a challenge. 

That’s why for years, Framery has been a crucial partner for Nordic Business Forum – Europe’s largest business and leadership conference – providing soundproof office pods that serve as private spaces for calls and networking within the energetic atmosphere.

Since 2010, Nordic Business Forum has grown from a small event in central Finland into Northern Europe’s premier series of business and leadership conferences. Dedicated to building leaders who change the world, NBF brings together CEOs, executives, and entrepreneurs for world-class events that attract over 6,500 attendees each year.

Framery pods have become an integral part of NBF’s strategy to create an attendee-centered environment – understanding that even during busy international conferences, people need spaces to make calls, meet potential partners, and get work done.
